Relax............WDW has been around for over 30 years and will continue to be here, so you can return to complete your mission.

I don't know the circumstances of the women who pushed the ECV so I won't comment on that but it is very nerve racking to load an ECV on the bus. It is easier to manuever when the bus is not crowded. I have had seated people refuse to move their feet so I could better and more quickly position my ECV. I really think one man was hoping a would bump him, he was so adamant about not moving his feet a couple of inches. If I had to dodge the oversize strollers it would be even more difficult not to mention children eagerly waiting to get to their destination. I don't enjoy using a ECV but for safety's sake it makes sense to board the ECV on a less crowded bus.disneyfreakjackie said:No flames here!! I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!!! But . . . I think the people in the wheelchairs should wait in line like everyone else. When their turn comes to get on the bus, they should get on first, but shouldn't be allowed to CUT in front of others!!! We watched a women try and try to ride her scooter into the bus, but couldn't get it straight enough to ride up the ramp. Well what does she do?? She gets off and pushes the scooter up the ramp!!! I was livid!!!

I bet you never have a problem getting a seat on the bus, though.eargal said:I have a son DS4 who coughs as if he is trying to expell an entire organ system. He has always been like this so I am very used to it but I DREAD him getting a tickle in his throat in a public place! He sounds like he has whooping cough or bronchitis.
My DD is 20, and one of the reasons I don't say anything is that I don't really want to draw more attention to the situation. My DD can't talk (although she does understand people quite well). When people do/say things she doesn't like, she usually ignores them.LindsayDunn228 said:Sue, just curious and you don't have to answer. How old is your daughter? The reason I ask is if my mother had said that to someone after I turned, I dunno, 12 or so, I would have been pretty embarrassed. I can't stand up for myself and don't need her to speak for. Not flaming, just curious.
I don't understand, how can people with wheelchairs wait in line with everyone else and get on first when their turn comes?disneyfreakjackie said:No flames here!! I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!!!

If they get to the front of the line after waiting in line, chances are good that the bus will have too many people on it for them to get on easily because of all the people who were already on the bus (even if there was room for lots more passengers.)
We also are in no hurry to get to the bus. We trust that they won't strand us at the park and that it will be much more relaxed and less cut-throat if we wait and leave the park a bit after closing.LuluLovesDisney said:I think what they meant was that if there is a long line that would require a person w/o a wc to wait for 2 or 3 buses, then a person with a wc should still have to wait 2 or 3 buses as opposed to being loaded on the next available bus in front of people who have *already* waited for 2 or 3 buses to get a seat. Wheelchairs for each bus would still be loaded first.
......I hate to end my day on a sour note, so I just wait to get there. Worst case scenario, they have a Disney Security van take me to my resort- another benefit of staying on Disney property.
